What If Jealousy Isn't as Bad as we Think?

Welcome back to What If I’m Wrong? A show where we might not give you the answers, but we will ask some really good questions.

This month, we’re diving deep into relationships—friendships, romantic connections, and family dynamics—and this week we are asking: What if jealousy isn’t as bad as we think?

Jealousy often gets a bad reputation, but is it always a toxic emotion, or could it be a natural, even helpful, response in relationships?

Join host Heather Thompson Dayand submission specialist Haley as they discuss how jealousy shows up in romantic and professional settings, breaking down the psychology behind it.

In Day in the Bible, Heather explores the scripture Numbers 12:1, where Miriam and Aaron's jealousy over Moses' marriage to a Cushite woman reveals their underlying insecurity and feelings of betrayal, not racial prejudice. This passage highlights the importance of understanding cultural context
